The St. Jean’s Roman Catholic Parish was founded by Father Jean
Gaire in 1888 in the village of Grand Clairiere in the Rural
Municipality of Cameron. The first church, erected in 1890, was later
destroyed by a cyclone. The present church was built in 1907 and its
bell tower and sacristy were added in 1923. Adjacent to the church is a
cemetery.
